Great job!!!!

Good job Michael - keep the successful streak going in 2023!

Keep up the good work everyone! We can do this!!!!

I am going to try the baby steps approach and see how that goes. Is there a special salt that you use? I use pink himalayan salt is that OK? I think I may just widen my current window for a week to 18:6 then go for the 24 hour fast. Yup ... will definitely hydrate.

Way to go!!!!

Hope you can achieve your goals!!

Good job! I am also doing intermittent fasting with a 16:8 window. I have also wanted to try a 24hr fast but not sure I could do it. What are some of your tips for successfully doing it?

Thank you very much. I am going to source them for myself.

I hope it does too .. even though I don't have the answer.

The exercise is my struggle as well but I'm going to keep trying too :smile:

That's the right attitude.

You can do it! Prioritize self-care so that you can show up as your best self. I am doing the same this year!

Way to go! Keep it up and you will get there. Small changes over time add up to big results in the long term. Small changes are also manageable. My small change is to give up sweets/anything with simple sugars for the next 6 months. I replace with some fruits and other things I can make for myself with alternative…

Keep up the good work! What do you use to measure your blood sugar and blood pressure at home?

It was a good day for following my eating plan and drinking water so I will celebrate that as a win!

I concur re: exercise.

Another day of sticking to my plan - I am on a streak of keto and it feels good to be eating consistently. Day by Day, Step by Step, I will reclaim my health, my fitness and my wholeness. I am already reaping the benefits - less inflamation, less aches and pains :smile:

I like that attitude :smile:

Down another pound at end of this week. It's interesting to watch the difference between how your body deals with a change in your way of eating versus when you were younger. Removing simple sugars from my diet in January has lead to me actually really enjoying the natural "sweetness" of vegetables and nuts. Over the years…

I love the way you are pushing ahead .... very inspiring!

Eating went well today - I didn't consume enough water though and I am still trying to make up for it. If I can get 1L in by 8 pm that will take my consumption up. I am feeling good about my progress and will weigh in tomorrow to see what has happened over the past week. I am trying not to weigh daily with the hope that I…

Perseverance is an important part of the formula. Part of my game plan is doing my best to make my own meals and treats so that I know exactly what is in them. Also, that they fit my eating plan. I have retrained myself to drink water - there was a time I never did. It all helps. Hang in there!

Yes, keep going and the changes will come with consistency. The scale is just one way of measuring weight loss but not the only way. Remember to take your body measurement too. Weightloss doesn't always on the scale so keep pressing forward.

You are absolutely right - we can do this thing and we will do this thing!!!

It has been a good week - I kept on my Keto Plan and did not allow temptations to take me off track. That's a win!

The water weight has started to fall off as I am 3 lbs down. Standard expectations with Keto if you follow diligently - water weight falls off for the first couple of weeks or more, before the real weight loss begins. I am feeling emotionally off today and will have to be vigilant around my food and water to prevent…

You are so right and thank you! I wish the same for you :smile:

You can do it :smile:

Keep up the great work!

A sad day for me as I attended my young cousin's viewing. She passed away just before Christmas leaving her 2 boys and husband behind. So sad. Confession: Normally I would medicate with something sweet but I didn't today. I was in the moment and therefore able to resist the temptation. I am so glad that I did not eat my…
